The continuously ever-growing demand for the electrical power causing the continuous expansion and complexity of power systems, environmental and economic factors forcing the system to work near the critical limits of stability, so research's stability have become research areas worthy of attention in the resent day. The present work includes two phases: The first one is to determine the Voltage Stability Index for the more insensitive load bus to the voltage collapse in an interconnected power system using fast analyzed method based on separate voltage and current for PQ buses from these of PV buses, while the second phase is to suggested a simulated optimization technique for optimal voltage stability profile all around the power system. The optimization technique is used to adjust the control variables elements: Generator voltage magnitude, active power of PV buses, VAR of shunt capacitor banks and the position of transformers tap with satisfied the limit of the state variables (load voltages, generator reactive power and the active power of the slack bus). These control variables are main effect on the voltage stability profile to reach the peak prospect voltage stable loading with acceptable voltage profile. An optimized voltage collapse based on Particle Swarm Optimization has been tested on both of the IEEE 6 bus system and the Iraqi Extra High Voltage 400 kV Grid 28 bus . To ensure the effectiveness of the optimization technique a comparison between the stability indexes for load buses before and after technical application are presented. Simulation results have been executed using Matlab software). Keyword: Voltage Stability Indicator; voltage collapse; Stability of Extra High Voltage Grid; PSO optimization technique.
In this study, the chaotic dynamics observed from a vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELS) subject to delayed optoelectronic feedback are investigated. The theoretical investigation is performed by using a MATLAB software package. The nonlinear dynamics of a VCSEL are examined using a single mode rate equations model. The key role played by system parameters such as delay time and the feedback strength on laser chaotic dynamics is addressed.
This paper proposes a new control circuit to control the switching of the main switches of the used Zero Current Zero Voltage Transition (ZCZVT) inverter to ensure Zero Current and Zero Voltage Switching (ZCZVS). The reverse recovery losses of the main diodes are minimized and the auxiliary switches of the commutation cell are turned on at Zero Current Switching (ZCS) and off at ZCZVS. The commutation losses are practically reduced to zero due to ZCS. Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) is used to perform the switching of the power semiconductor devices and to control the output voltage value. MATLAB software is used to simulate the inverter circuit. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed control circuit.
The identification of system parameters plays an essential role in system modeling and control. This paper presents a parameter estimation for a permanent magnetic DC motor using the simulink design optimization method. The parameter estimation may be represented as an optimization problem. Firstly, the initial values of the DC motor parameters are extracted using the dynamic model through measuring the values of voltage, current, and speed of the motor. Then, these values are used as an initial value for simulink design optimization. The experimentally input- output data can be collected using a suggested microcontroller based circuit that will be used later for estimating the DC motor parameters by building a simulink model. Two optimization algorithms are used, the pattern search and the nonlinear least square. The results show that the nonlinear least square algorithm gives a more accurate result that almost approaches to the actual measured speed response of the motor. )
